If there's any makeup trend I'll never get tired of, it's the smokey eye. I've been a devotee since my days doing my own makeup as college dancer (we don't have to get into that), and Sarah Jessica Parker is reminding me exactly why I'm a fan.
The And Just Like That actress was photographed in New York City on Oct. 8 while attending the New York City Ballet Fall Fashion Gala. For the event, she looked like a literal angel on earth wearing an Iris van Herpen design that featured a cream mini dress with black netting on top and three-dimensional wings that extended on either side. As to be expected, Parker's glam was equally as fabulous: she pulled her hair back into a sleek bun with a middle part and wore dark, smokey eye makeup. It really gave chic Black Swan.
Parker's never been afraid of a dark eye makeup moment. Last year, while attending the London after party for her play, Plaza Suite, she wore smokey makeup with an added a bit of shimmer.
The smokey eye was a staple on red carpets in the early 2000s since it was a go-to for people looking to add some extra drama and flair to their makeup looks, but it's a classic look that's never really gone out of style since it's so easy to customize and can be as dramatic or as dialed back as you want it to be.
